Natural. Functional. Thoughtfully Sourced.
These beautiful large abalone shells (approximately 6-7 inches) are traditionally used as bowls for incense, resin, or bundled botanicals.
 
Sourced from Mexico, each shell reflects the iridescent beauty of the sea while honoring sustainable availability. Due to responsible harvesting practices and conservation considerations, these bowls may be more shallow in depth — a reflection of mindful sourcing rather than mass extraction.
 
Each shell is unique in color, pattern, and shape, with natural variations that make every piece one of a kind.
 
Suggested Use
Use as a heat-safe bowl for incense, resin, or bundled botanicals. For safe and elevated use, pair with our adjustable wooden tripod stand to allow airflow beneath the shell during burning.  Always place on a stable, heat-resistant surface and use caution during use.
